ptsd C&P review and suggestions please?!
This may be a little long so please bare with me. Background info: In Army from 1998-2001. Had a head injury that resulted in a fracture of my frontal sinus with surgical repair including reconstruction and plate and screws. The injury was the result of a fall off a humvee while setting up antenna in november 2000 (non-combat related). I do not recall whether I was completely knocked unconscious or not.

C&P Exams
I had a C & P Exam Dec 2023 for my back, knees, debilities and nerve damage. I felt the exam went well and nurse practitioner seem very knowledgeable. I am now going to get a second C & P for my pinch nerve and nerve damage? The only reason I can see is that the VA may be considering disability and just needs to know what percentage my nerve damage is so the can properly rate it? Has anyone else had this happen to then and how did it come out?

Asthma C&P Exam this week and I am a train wreck.
I’m at 10% for Rhinitis currently. Last month I file for Asthma. When I gotten back from a Middle East deployment. I was having breathing issues on occasions when I’d run. My doctor just said it was occasional asthma and bronchitis and prescribed me an albuterol rescue inhaled. This was in 2012. Whenever I'd get sick I would usually get an inhaler from urgent care. Early last year my sleep Doctor / Pulmonologist prescribed me Arnuity daily but add to his notes “no formal asthma diagnosis “ so I’ve never had a PFT, a formal diagnosis of asthma except from a doctor over 12 years ago that’s dead and gone. My asthma comes out with heavy aerobic exercise, especially in cold…

P & T or Not P & T
This is to try to help anyone questioning if they are P & T or not. I have been rated 100% scheduler P & T for well over a decade and a half, but the VA recently settled one of my appeals that have been going on for the entire time that I had this rating. So, it turns out due to my medical records the VA decided to award me an EED of P & T when they granted me an EED of 100% TDIU. That’s right, I was granted 100% scheduler P & T then due to this new decision the VA awarded me several years earlier of TDIU P & T but my point to this post is that even in this recent decision the VA added the VA form 21-8760 that explains benefits for veterans that are ra…
